im really enjoying how snappy everything is. part of it is of course that im used to computers from 2012-2013 but also some stuff feels faster than on the M4 macbook pro at work

COSMIC is nice but i am experiencing too many bugs*, moved to KDE for now to get stuff done

* some, possibly all, are fixed in newer versions than the one i have, so i will try nightlies or something once i have fewer other things to configure

thought id have to buy a new laptop sleeve because 14" is bigger than 13". but it turns out the bezels are much smaller so the old sleeve fits just fine :)

btw the "kit" was almost disappointingly simple. you plug in three sensors, screw the case together, and done 😄 nearly 100€ saved
